This 125sq.m. apartment is situated in a former industrial building on Meg. Alexandrou Street in Kerameikos. The 5 storey building, built in the 80s, originally housed a factory and is located in an area which has retained its strong industrial presence. The works carried out concerned the complete restructuring of the interior spaces. In this way, each floor was converted into an independent apartment and the two upper floors became a single maisonette and roof garden. From the outset, the simple layout of the floors contained a large single space with multiple openings all around, a clear example of industrial and functional architecture. This fact, together with the desire to retain, as much as possible, the original ambiance of the space, helped in the conversion of each floor into a extensive loft style apartment with a minimalistic spirit.
